To the Sìpáilóu campus, from the airport

The airplanes land on Nánjīng Lùkǒu International Airport, 南京禄口国际机场.

  • The official taxi stand is outside the airport door. Those who talk to you in the airport are not official, and will not give you the proper receipt.

    Ask the driver to go to the Sìpáilóu campus of Southeast University. The campus has three gates:

    • The biggest is the South gate, 南门。
    • Our office is near the East gate, 东门。
    • Liúyuán hotel is near the West gate, 榴园门。

    The taxi fare is 140-190 yuan (20-27 USD), depending on the traffic and time of the day. The driver may ask you 10 yuan for a highway ticket along the way. Before getting off, ask the driver to give a receipt (in addition to the highway ticket) if necessary.
